FYI-In no way am I calling out all shippers who ship the ships I will mention-just the militant ones who invade tags and harass people for not shipping their ship or who harass people for saying it’s not canon.

I’m getting really tired of all the stupid ship wars over the Loki show. I don’t care if you ship whatever you want but stop invading other peoples tags just to belittle what they ship . I can’t even filter them out because some you guys are invading the mainstream tags without even tagging it as ships. And just because your ship is the most popular doesn’t give you the right to harass people and to try to force them to say it’s canon. Newsflash-none of these ships are canon. Will they be? Possibly-though I don’t think so-especially since the head writer has already said that the most popular ship won’t be although it’s true that he could be lying. They are all controversial in some way-even though a queer relationship shouldn’t be; at least not for being queer. But guess what guys-not everybody sees chemistry of a romantic type among all these characters and I really wish some you all would stop acting like everyone is supposed to feel the way about it that you do.

Yeah some people ship some controversial and sometimes distasteful stuff-like self-love, incest and other weird shit has been available in many fandoms for some time. And no it doesn’t automatically mean people do it in real life. It’s also a pretty small corner of fandom-you’re literally giving it attention by even talking about it so much. You don’t have to like it but you do need to accept that it exists. I guarantee you there’s all kinds of stuff that’s a lot worse than what I just mentioned in many fandoms and it’s usually not that hard to ignore that part of fandom-especially on social media-just filter out the tags and don’t go looking for them. That some of you bitch about it but literally go looking for it in the tags says a lot. I see several people who do this who have no problem with rape, torture, clone f******, and even underage stuff in the fandom so quit moralizing. There are profiles that invade tags that go around talking about ships that they feel are morally wrong-dude seriously keep it on your profile all you want but quit invading tags. If you have a problem with stuff that’s “morally wrong” I hate to break it to you but it’s all over the world and all over fandom. And those of you complaining about incest type ships-how many of you were fine with Jamie and Cersei in Game of Thrones because it was canon? How many of you are fine with writing about the weird romantic situations Loki gets into in both the myths and the comics (more on the below).

On the other hand-those of you who ship controversial ships that the majority find distasteful need to understand that most mainstream fans aren’t going to like them. People don’t or at least aren’t supposed to do this stuff in the real world and if you want to write in in your corner of fandom that’s fine. But most people aren’t going to like it and you need to stay in your lane and tag your stuff and not say it’s canon. To be fair until recently most of you did do this.

People ship Loki with a lot of weird ships. We’re talking about the guy/girl who in the myths and some parts of the comics turned into a mare and gave birth to a horse! And who in both the comics and the myths has monster children. Who ate a witch’s heart and gave birth to monsters. Many of you are fine with this because it’s canonical in most media. I doubt you’d be okay with it in real life-or that you assume that everybody who writes fan fiction (and there’s a lot of it) about it is okay with it in real life. Some people literally ship him with the Tesseract (SpaceFrost). Some people ship him with his clones (LokiCest). Some people ship him with Tom (FrostPudding). Yeah sometimes it’s crack ships-but sometimes it isn’t. I quite enjoy the SpaceFrost one and find it amusing-as well as FrostPudding-is some asshole going to come after for me for that? They’re actually popular ships although people usually turn the Tesseract into a person. 😁

Personally, I don’t ship any of the new ships (I’d rather see Loki with someone who doesn’t threaten his life or automatically want something from him; I’m kind of worn out on the enemies to lovers thing) but I really don’t care as long as people aren’t trying to force it on me or force me to say it’s canon. This is literally FrostMaster all over again-which isn’t canon but because it was a popular ship you had militants trying to harass people who said it wasn’t canon. Not everybody ships Loki with an older man who is supposed to control him in some way. If you do that’s fine and if you don’t that’s fine too.

I know a lot of people don’t like the Thorki ship-but I’ll say one thing for those shippers-at least most of the time they stay in their lane, understand that many people don��t appreciate their ship, don’t harass people over it, and tag their stuff. Several of you could stand to learn to do the same. And FYI, even if your ship does become canon that still doesn’t give you the right to harass people who don’t ship it or ship other ships. I’ve seen people saying racist stuff to people who ship Loki and Casey, and Mobius and Renslayer. Like, these are tiny ships and you’re threatened by them?? Your ships are the majority-isn’t that enough? I’ve also seen the some people trying to say that if you don’t ship Lokius you’re homophobic. Of course while there are some asshole homo/biphobes-there’s plenty of other queer people and others who aren’t homo/biphobic and who don’t ship them and some of you need to get that through your heads and stop using our queer identity to prop up your ship. It’s not always about canon though-it’s usually about what’s most popular. Bruce and Natasha was actual canon and I remember people who shipped them getting all kinds of shit from people who shipped a much more popular ship.

In no way am I calling out all shippers who ship these ships-just the militant ones who invade tags and harass people for not shipping their ship or for saying it’s not canon. Y’all getting ridiculous over fictional characters. Seriously, mind your own business and stay in your lane and stop messing with mainstream tags while not including your specific ship tags. I don’t want to look through the Loki series tag and see shippers fighting without these posts being tagged appropriately. It comes across that there’s no reason for you to do this other than spite. You can also tag stuff as “x negative” or “x critical”.

TLDR: Militant shippers (and only those) please stop invading each other‘s tags and stop invading mainstream tags. Tag your stuff and stay in your lane. And remember none of your ships are canon (although that may change but even then don’t harass people) so stop trying to push people into saying they are. Also people are going to ship Loki with all kinds of weird ships- considering his history in both mythology and the comics. If you don’t like it then stay out of the tags and also those of you that ship these ships please tag your stuff. And don’t use things like racism and queerphobia to either support or disparage ships.

Writer tag game

Thanks for tagging me, @ectogeo-rebubbles... 4, days ago, sorry; my parents are visiting and I haven’t had much time to myself.

How many works do you have on AO3?

(Why is the number so big when I post? @sapphosewrites said the same thing, so I know it’s not just me...)

What's your total AO3 word count?

515,575

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Mostly Zuko-centric ATLA fics because a couple were inspired by a BNA whom I tagged in the Tumblr post, then she reblogged and lots of people saw them.

Between the Salt Water and the Sea Strand

To Give Birth to a Dancing Star (didn’t get very far on that one, oops)

The Last Argument

Zeno’s Paradox (the only non-ATLA fic on this list; I posted it very shortly after Thor: Ragnarok came out, before I realized how terrible it was)

Shame and Necessity

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes, almost always (unless someone said something weird, or one person left a bunch of identical short comments on different chapters of the same fic; it seems a bit silly to respond to every “<3″ with “Thanks!”). I respond to encourage people to keep commenting, by assuring them that I’m reading comments, I pay attention to their content, and I appreciate them. I especially like it when people comment on specific themes in the fic or how it relates to some aspect of canon, so that it starts an analytical conversation about the story and the characters -- which is what a lot of us are here for.

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

I’m gonna say The Third Time, because Loki actually permanently dies.

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

Starting Over, I guess? That’s the hopeful ending of my Thorki series, taking place before some hypothetical version of the Infinity War storyline in which neither of our principal characters dies (because fuck the actual movies, and fuck Ragnarok too, while we’re at it). But there are other fics, sometimes intermediate in one of my series, that have hopeful rather than downbeat endings, even if more complications arise later. The Ninth Deadly Sin is a rare standalone fic with a happy ending (which I’d forgotten about until I went looking through my Works page for happy endings). Prince of Darkness also has a fairly happy ending that involves solving climate change with Frost Giants...

Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the craziest one you’ve ever written?

No, at least not yet. I have nothing against them in principle, and sometimes enjoy reading them, but since the target audience is the intersection of two (or more) fandoms, it’s necessarily going to be smaller than either fandom on its own.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Not really related to the fic. I did get a random nasty comment on a Garashir fic about a fan letter I wrote to Tom Hiddleston (and handed to his manager-person after seeing Betrayal in London) and then posted on Tumblr. Just someone being an asshole.

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

I do indeed! I write very chatty smut, with a lot of feelings, often angsty, and sometimes awkward, because sex can be awkward, especially if one or more of the participants is inexperienced (at least with bodies like their partner’s).

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes -- someone translated No Exit into French as Aucune sortie (though actually, the French title of the Sartre play that I named the fic after is Huis clos).

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Nope.

What’s your all-time favorite ship?

I’m inevitably going to answer that kind of question with my current favorite ship, which is Garashir... but that might actually be my all-time favorite ship because the fandom is a lot more welcoming and chill than others I’ve been in before.

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

Hoo boy. All the people I’ve seen doing this tag game previously have said they don’t have any; I have 5 partially posted WIPs in old fandoms that I doubt I’ll pick up again. I think I’ve tagged most of them as “on hiatus” and warned readers in author’s notes that I probably won’t finish... Do I want to finish them? In theory, yes; in practice, no.

What are your writing strengths?

I’ve most often received compliments on my dialogue, which I also find the easiest thing to write; my favorite version of this compliment is when people say that they can hear the dialogue in the actors’/characters’ voices. Some people enjoy the philosophical discussions that I can’t help inserting into my fics...

What are your writing weaknesses?

Plots. Thing happening. I cannot come up with plots. All of my fics are just people talking and having thoughts and feelings about things.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

Ask yourself: what does it add to have the dialogue in the language it’s supposed to be in rather than translated? If the POV character speaks the language, would it be sufficient to note that they’ve switched to a different language, or put it in italics or something to indicate that? If the POV character doesn’t speak the language, would it make more sense to just say that other characters have spoken an unintelligible string in another language, or that they just caught a few words, or whatever? That’s not to say that there’s never a good reason to include the actual language; if the actual words are important, or if it matters that the POV character doesn’t switch effortlessly between languages, or if it just adds some richness of texture that you’re going for, it can make sense.

If it’s a real language that you’re not fluent in, do ask someone who is to check your grammar.

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Harry Potter, of course; I am that age, after all. I wrote fics about Tom Riddle and/or Voldemort when I was in middle school in 2001-2. I’ve always been interested in the villain’s perspective.

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

At the moment, Had we but world enough, and time. It stayed reasonably self-contained while also covering the issues I wanted it to cover, with some smut thrown in. Maybe my best fic is actually an older one, but my favorite is always in my current fandom, because that’s what I’m excited about... and I’d like to think my writing has been improving with practice.

Tagging: @delicatetrashstranger, @vermin-disciple, @hex-o, @judiops, @the-last-dillpickle... and @illwynd and @incredifishface (since I actually ended up talking about my Loki and Thorki fics in this one).

Fic Writer Questions!

tagged by @palamedessextus 😊 thanks friend!

1) How many works do you have on AO3?

64! only five more to the magic number ayyyyy and then i’m legally obligated to never post another one.

2) What’s your total AO3 word count?

289,575 apparently??? which seems way way way higher than i ever would have guessed, wow. who knew!

3) How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?

31 on ao3, although that’s lumping, eg, all marvel subfandoms together. but i have a ridiculous amount of wips in all kinds of other fandoms that i haven’t/won’t post, soooo.... more than that! and i don’t want to list them all bc that’d be a long boring read!

4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

it serenely disdains to destroy us, a magnus archives fic that, i somewhat vainly note, has been orbiting in the top few top kudosed fics in the tag since i posted it womp womp.

concerning flight, because we all thirsty for thor/loki+gender and i for one support us.

untitled porny snippet (yes that’s actually what it’s called), because same as above. (i see u, kudos-to-comment ratio and i aint mad but.... i see u. all you dirty birds out there shamefully yet silently jerking it. kudos to YOU.)

an experiment in posthumous subsistence, a batman/joker zombie au i wrote fucking TEN YEARS AGO ALMOST. why???? why is this fic so popular?? i’m barely a good writer now and i sure as shit wasn’t one a decade ago! the terrible title alone should disqualify it from being read, but i guess the people want what they want. and what they want is batman and joker handcuffed together, trying to escape the zombie apocalypse ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

all good things, some stucky hydra trash party-adjacent smut regarding piercings. i stand by this one 100%, it deserves every kudo(s?) tbh.

5) Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

i do, depending on the comment! i don’t think comments like “loved this!” / “thanks for writing!” are written with the intent to receive a response (or at least, when i write them on other people’s fics, i certainly don’t expect one). they’re like an extra kudo(s?), and i appreciate them a lot, but they’re not really an invitation to Discuss. whereas if someone clearly has put a lot of thought into a comment, or asked a question, or made some observations that i jive with, or just seems like they want to engage, then hell yeah i jump in there. love that shit.

6) What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

i guess arguably thine own self, which is some hydra husbands abo. laugh all you want, it’s one of my fave of all my fics lmao. probably specifically bc of the unpleasant/open ending.

7) What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

probably moderation is a memory! since it, unlike 99% of all my other stuff, isn’t just total smut, and the whole point of writing it was to wallow as deep as possible in the sauce of giddy teenage infatuation, it got the opportunity to have an actual emotional arc (more or less). furthermore i could not possibly bring myself to break johnny lawrence’s tender little heart ever, that would hurt me far more than it would hurt him.

8) Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?

i only realised while answering this question that apparently.... no i don’t write crossovers! which is not at all a deliberate choice, i guess a compelling enough one just hasn’t occurred to me yet!

9) Have you ever received hate on a fic?

shockingly no! by some accidental miracle i’ve managed to fly under the radar so far, despite some of the really buckwild stuff i’ve posted. however, considering some of the stuff i’m probably ABOUT to post.... that clean track record might soon come to an end lmao.

10) Do you write smut? If so what kind?

lmao. uhhhh. almost exclusively, and i guess??? all kinds? this is clearly a question composed by someone who does not write smut.

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i know of, and i wouldn’t really care if i did.

12) Have you ever had a fic translated?

yeah i think a few....? a number of people have asked anyway and i always say yes, so probably there’s at least one floating around out there somewhere.

13) Have you ever co-written a fic before?

i have! just once, and we really made it count. it’s called a reptile dysfunction, which should tell you all you need to know.

14) What’s your all time favorite ship?

thorki, probably. i always have and always will come back to it, no matter what. it’s got such a ferociously timeless staying power and so much potential variation, i don’t think i could ever get bored of it, regardless of what level of marvel-exhaustion i might feel at a given time, or what tropes, kinks, or stage of literary pretension i’m at. truly the oh tee pee.

15) What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

ohhhhh all 836575927 of them, but. there’s this one thorki fic i started almost ten years ago as an experiment with a new-to-me style, which turned out over the intervening years to become my main style, and looking back on that fic, which for many years was a touchstone of writing-to-aspire to for me, it’s actually Not Very Good lol. but i still love the core concept, which is a canon divergence berserker thor au, but not only is it a somewhat inaccessible (admittedly less so since the deadpool movies came out, which was a hilarious pipe dream back when i started writing it) x-force comics crossover, but i wrote myself into a bunch of corners and have yet to dig up the energy to write myself back out of them! i go and reread it every year or so and think “hmm... maybe now...” but tbh it’s just not really good enough to bother! perhaps someday i’ll repurpose the best elements of it into something new.

16) What are your writing strengths?

man, it’s so hard to say. in much the same way that you can spend hours every day staring at yourself in a mirror, yet be utterly incapable of picking yourself out of a lineup, i spend a lot of time eyeballing my writing, but stepping back it seems like a chaotic mass of nonsense with few cohesive throughlines. i’m good at writing smut, i know that much! and in that vein, i think i am good at smut bc i am very good at committing to the bit, as it were. getting into the nitty gritty of experience and sensation (physical or emotional) and rendering largely abstract internal concepts in fairly comprehensible ways. i think my prose is quite decent on a sentence level too.

17) What are your writing weaknesses?

utterly incapable of finishing anything! or plotting anything! can’t mange a cohesive emotional arc! write myself into overly structured corners or out onto a vast plain with no structure in sight! all the macro elements of storytelling totally elude me, which is very frustrating when i have all this tasty fleshed out micro-level character stuff, but no narrative skeleton upon which to drape it.

18) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? don’t! unless you are very sure you know what you’re doing, and the other language bits are a) very few, b) easily contextually understood, and c) actually adding something other than a weird flex that you know google translate exists.

19) What was the first fandom you wrote for?

11yo me wrote spock/kirk/janice rand and thought she invented the concept of a threesome. brand been stronk since day one 🤘. (the vulcan salute is right next to the devil horns in my emoji list, so....)

20) What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

i love the (ongoing) better with you series very much, not least because i’m still absolutely flabbergasted that i wrote something that long. i think it’s actually pretty good all things considered and it’s very dear to me on many many levels. but the fic that i just viscerally adore, that i love the style of, and that i had such a transcendent, invigorating, organic Experience writing, is temper its strength, adding honey until quite cold, which is a terror fic with the inexplicable pairing of edward little/hartnell, featuring crossdressing and gender stuff. it just burst out of me fully formed one day and i don’t think i’ve managed to top it yet!

I was tagged by the delightful @arcanemoody!

Pick 10 ships without reading the questions.

Thorki

Hiddlesworth

Rimmer/Lister

Stony

Stucky

Venom

Peter/Ned

Jeeves/Wooster

Ineffable Husbands

Tennant/Sheen (Staged-version)

1. Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping 6?

Hah, probably the trailer!! No, that was an instant thing. They just have such great chemistry, and every single frame of that movie confirms it. The banter, the jealousy, the compatibility, the way they care for one another... 2. Have you ever read a FanFiction about 2?

Yes, but not many. I’m VERY picky about the fanfic I read, particularly RPF fanfic. It’s not so much that there’s bad stuff out there (though there is, and you have to search to find stuff you really like), but people also have very different takes on RPF characterization, and again, I’m picky. :p 3. Has a picture of 4 ever been your screen saver/profile picture/tumblr? No, not those two. But they were part of a password of mine once, if that counts! 4. If 7 were to suddenly break-up today, what would your reaction be?

Aw man... I mean, they’re not canon, but if they were to break up in an universe, I would be heartbroken. They’re one of my comfort pairings, and so, so sweet. I’d like to see them together forever.

5. Why is 1 so important? So many reasons. I got into Thorki after Ragnarok, which is a movie that I share a love of with @roadsterguysblog. Seeing that film was such a boost to my creativity, and made me start writing more again. And as for the ship itself, the characters are so interesting and sweet (yes, even Loki), and because they’ve known one another their whole lives and lived as family, it’s a unique dynamic. It’s very fun to play around with. I guess they’re also a comfort pairing of sorts, which is odd for something with so much angst potential. But I suppose I love them enough for them to feel very familiar? Something like that. 6. Is 9 a funny ship or a serious ship?

Both! Like most ships, but definitely this one. Good Omens is a comedy, but also serious, in that perfect way both Pratchett and Gaiman has. It’s funny in that their situation is absurd, and their bickering is clever and biting and funny, but it’s serious in that they’re both super intense people, living through very serious times, and surviving serious scenarioes. 7. Out of all of the ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry?

Oh man, that’s a tough one. I’m tempted to say Ineffable Husbands, but Hiddlesworth is UP there. I mean, I ship RPF couples because the chemistry between them is blatant, and quite often more present than for a completely fictional couple. I think it’s a tie, there. 8. Out of all of your ships listed, which ship has the strongest bond? I mean, possibly Ineffable Husbands again? Just by virtue of their roles, and their age! But there are many contenders here - Venom, for one, as they are literally one person. But it’s going to be Ineffable Husbands, I think, though I feel like they’re cheating. 9. How many times have you read/watched 8’s fandom?

Read and watched, for this one! Oh, I honestly don’t know. I watched the Jeeves & Wooster when I was a kid, and there were a lot of reruns. As an adult, I read the novels, and rewatched the show.... so, so many times. I literally have no idea. PLEASE, if you get a chance, read the books. Some are even available for free, due to copyright. They’re amazing, Wodehouse was a genius. 10. Which ship has lasted the longest?

In terms of interpersonal relationship, that’s got to be Ineffable Husbands, again. But in terms of how long have I shipped them - Rimmer/Lister, no question. I don’t think I shipped them when I watched the show while I was a kid, but I think the embers of what became that fire was definitely there. 11. How many times, if ever, has 2 broken up? Well, they’re not canon! :D In as much as an RPF-ship can be canon. So thankfully, never. :) Though they aren’t seen together as often as they used to be, for obvious reasons, as they don’t work together, they seemed to be great friends and I’ve no doubt they still are. 12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, 2 or 8? If it’s an either/or question, definitely Jeeves and Wooster. Because Jeeves is basically magic, and would just make it happen. But I think Chris would do pretty well too, and Tom is a great runner. 13. Did 5 ever have to hide their relationship for any reason?

They’re not canon, so it’s not applicable. Though if they WERE a couple in the 40s, they would have had to hide it, of course. 14. Is 4 still together?

WE DON’T TALK ABOUT ENDGAME.

15. Is 3 canon?

Very few of these are, so nope! 16. If all 10 ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple would win? Again, even though we’re dealing with a literal angel and demon here, Jeeves would win. Because Jeeves. 17. Has anybody ever tried to sabotage 10’s ship?

Staged the show is basically the story of other people and David and Michael themselves all continually trying to sabotage them as a ship. :D (And also encourage it.)

18. Which ship would you defend to the death and beyond? All of them. 19. Do you spend hours a day going through 1’s tumblr page?

There are some accounts on here that basically are that, so yeah! 20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the ten ships to break up forever or else she´d break them all forever, which ship would you sink?

Oh man. I can’t imagine any of them, honestly. But maybe Tennant/Sheen, because they’re in a constant state of fluxx anyway, so maybe it wouldn’t hold! :D

Tagging anyone who wants to do it, though obviously I’d love to hear from you, @roadsterguysblog!

how exactly do you cope with or respond to fandoms that just seem overall incredibly unsupportive/close minded? like there's certain works that I'm into, but sometimes, the fandom just isn't my cup of tea and I don't know what to do

I’ve been in like...a couple of toxic fandoms in the past. One became toxic over a period of time, for a short period of time, due to specific BNFs in the fandom (that would be Rise of the Guardians about 6 years ago - it’s not like that anymore and hasn’t been for a long time, I wouldn’t have been able to write TGATNW otherwise I think), and the other was Dragon Age. I mean there are other fandoms I’m in like Steven Universe and Voltron that are obviously famous for being super toxic, but aside from looking at fanart and the occasional fic, I’m not very involved and so it’s easy to avoid.

Honestly, re: the ‘how do you cope’ I just ignore it? Like, the Detroit: Become Human fandom has been really bizarre. Not toxic just...WEIRD. Lmao. But I didn’t start writing for those people, I started writing the story for myself and like the one or two people I thought would like the story. And when certain types of comments started getting me down, I then began ignoring the fandom actively in favour of thinking about those people instead.

Like, I get to choose how much I interact with a fandom. Even with products I really love, like Dragon Age, I follow only about two or three dedicated DA posters who I feel curate their feeds pretty well. I don’t compromise by thinking ‘oh well even though they post things that make me uncomfortable / anti stuff the fanart they post is worth it.’ It’s NOT worth it, if it exposes me to those kinds of attitudes on a regular basis. The occasional post from a mutual I can generally ignore (unless it’s an anti post), but I’m not going to pick up people to follow who are 50% good content and 50% ‘oh god.’ Because you’re not going to end up enjoying the good content very much in that scenario.

So some fandoms I read a lot of fics very actively, interact with authors etc. I think that’s more typical of me in Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji, especially among Ciel/Sebastian shippers. Ditto Thorki shippers in Marvel. Sometimes you see me posting more fanart for that stuff over at @capillata not because I actually care about those fandoms more than other ones, but because I can afford to follow more people because the fandoms overall are less toxic etc.

The other thing to keep in mind is that say, for example, Steven Universe, I would consider myself a part of that fandom because I reblog fanart, I watch the show pretty religiously, I know all the words to the songs, etc. But I’m not the gross, wanky, anti part of it. I’m still a part of fandom just because I’m not like, in the section it’s most famous for. I daresay most members of the Steven Universe fandom are just like me. They’re just quieter and less loud and are more likely to walk away from stupid arguments! So anon, generally speaking, if you are interacting with the fanworks of a fandom, you are part of the fandom too! Just...in a different way to what you’re seeing. Chances are, unless the fandom is literally only four people, you’re not alone. :D It can take time to find the quieter, less drama-focused members of fandom precisely because they are quieter and less drama-focused. They won’t be tagging all their posts into the main tags, their Twitters may be hard to find, etc.

It also helps to be in more than one fandom. Like, that way you sort of have refuges from where the drama is likely to explode.

Problematic pockets of fandom are getting larger these days due to the validation of antis in the mainstream. So it becomes more important than ever to develop your own tools which look like:

* Not developing absolutist thinking. It’s easy to go ‘this fandom is toxic’ but the reality is it’s usually only a pocket of the fandom who are the loudest and most disruptive. Even in the most famously shitty fandoms (Voltron), there are reasonable, fair-minded, ‘ship what you like you’re valid’ people. It’s true, I know them and I am one. Absolutist thinking will lock you away from those people before you even have a chance to find or meet them.

* Curate your feeds! Be fussy/picky about what you follow. If you can, use things like Saviour or New X-Kit on Tumblr to blacklist trigger or squick words. Don’t be afraid to block antis or similar on Twitter. Don’t worry about what you’ll ‘miss out on’ in the process. Be gently ruthless with what you keep around you.

* If the fandom isn’t great because it’s quiet, encourage it along if you have the voice/energy for it. Put positive energy into the fandom.

* Remember that you are a part of the fandom too if you’re engaging in it and want to be.

* Encourage the works that you think are what you’re looking for in the fandom. Say you’re in an anti-dominated fandom and someone writes a ‘controversial’ work that you LOVE, see about taking the time to comment or send an ask to the author saying you enjoyed it. Send it on anon if you have to, but consider the ways you can support the parts of fandom you actively enjoy. It’s the best way to see more of it (this is obviously energy dependent lol).

* Remember you can peace out from the fandom. There is nothing to stop you from just reading fanworks forever, and never engaging in the fandom at all. Tbh this was me for the majority of my time re: fanfiction. I may have written Misfits fanfiction, but I’m not active in the fandom. The same can be said for Rise of the Guardians and even now Detroit: Become Human. (Though the latter is because the areas of fandom I was in kind of died lmao). There’s no litmus test saying that you’re only valid if you’re in the fandom, that’s some bullshit.

Anyway, tl;dr - I cope by avoiding the bad shit, and carefully curating my Tumblr feeds (or any place where I see fandom stuff, like Twitter as well), and by remembering that I’m also a part of the fandom, and that if I can be in it and not be a shouty anti while I’m in it, there will be other people like me in that fandom who are the same. Good luck, anon!

(The super short answer is: ‘If it isn’t your cup of tea then just read the fics friendo, no one’s stopping you’)

11/11/11

I was tagged by @phd-mama and @allwaswell16 and @chloehl10 so this is more like 33/11/11 hahaha I got a little carried away with this but I love answering stuff like this

Answer 11 questions, come up with 11 more, tag 11 people.

1. Tell me, do you like music on when you write??

No, I have to have silence. Or, you know, normal household noises. When I was in high school I listened to music with the tv on while doing my homework but now.... I think it’s moreso because I periodically close my eyes and visualize the scene or really throw myself into the character to get the emotions right and the music just takes away from that. I also hear music in a really complex way which I won’t explain here because this is about writing, but yea, it’s too much stimulation

2. Are you someone who plots everything out before you write it?

Absolutely not. I can count on my fingers the number of times I’ve actually plotted something for a fic in this fandom. I’m definitely a fly by the seat of my pants kind of writer. I generally have somewhere the fic is going, but I usually let the characters steer so sometimes it vectors off someplace I never expected it to go. That’s how so many of my better fics have gone. I did have to plot out As We Were, As We Are extensively because wow complex precise true to life timelines, but that’s really the only one I’ve actually done a real one for.

3. Do you write in chronological order?

Most of the time, yes. Occassionally I’ll jump down and write or start a scene that either inspired the whole fic or that I want to get down before I forget it, but I usually write from start to finish.

4. Do you like to eat while writing?

hahahahaha usually no. But only because I’ll get distracted and like.... not write....

5. Is there a trope you love?

I am a sucker for fake/pretend relationships. It’s so obviously one of the most predictable storylines but I’ll read every one of them. I don’t know why. The misunderstanding angst of it... I don’t know!

6. Have you written it? (See 5)

I don’t... think so... Is that bad I don’t remember? But I don’t think I have

7. Is there a trope you hate?

I can’t really do the sugar baby/daddy scenario... there are a few cases where it’s worked but in general, no.

8. Have you written it? (See 7)

I think there is a little bit of it in a couple maybe? And someone asked me to write one that’s still in my maybe pile... so I might.

9. Can you read your main ship with other pairings?

Depends. Usually yes because if it’s a pairing I don’t like I just kind of generically gloss over it in my mind a bit? Or imagine the same description but not that exact person? But there aren’t really a lot of absolute nos for me and it’s usually related to me not like that PERSON rather than the ship (taylor swift for example, have to really speed through fics with her in parts BUT like I said, it’s easy for me to imagine a likeness that’s not HER specifically. Idk). If it’s well written then it’s worth getting through it, if it’s not well written, I probably wouldn’t finish it anyway.

10. What’s a solid NO GO for you?

I don’t have many and most of them even have exceptions so I don’t know what a solid no is until I see a tag that’s a solid no?? And they’re the usual general niche things? (scat, watersports, idk those things) Hardcore bdsm-type is a no for me (but there have been some exceptions). MOST things that are nos for me like daddy kink, I can still read the fic, I just kind of... speed through those parts? I don’t really have any actual triggers... I don’t really read a lot of girl direction if they’re both girls. Which is a weird complicated issue for me because I WRITE IT. And there are some good ones out there that I have read but in general...? idk it’s weird and probably has a lot to do with me being sdpofijapsdgjoidsjfosdj about words for vagina rather than it actually being girls. But to be fair it took me years to be comfortable writing cock and dick without blushing and running off. I don’t know, it’s something about reading it that it usually isn’t my first choice. That was a long complicated answer just to say “not really”

11. Do you have a signature move, aka, let’s say for no particular reason, just because, coming in pants?

oh my god. Yes. Probably. I can’t think off of the top of my head but I definitely find myself returning to the same phrasing or words or actions. Especially when it comes to abo and knotting.

1. What’s your favourite fic you’ve ever written, and why?

Sisterwives and As We Were, As We Are I think because they are the two I put the most into. Plotting, planning, emotions, etc.

2. Pick three words that you think describe your works overall.

Problematic (lol), intense/emotional, sexual.

3. How long does it take you to write a fic?

Varies. I’ve written 20k+ in 24 hours and I’ve written 5k in a month. Really depends on what I’m working on and my emotional state of stress.

4. What’s the hardest thing about writing?

For me? Fluff and filler. And English. I’ve fallen into a pattern of writing that probably has a lot of errors in tense. But... it is what it is.

5. Do you listen to music or anything while you write? What’s normal for you when you write?

I answered this one in depth above

6. How do you come up with titles for your fics?

I have this terrible thing where I just name a fic and run and then regret it and want to change it once it’s already posted hahahahaha There are a handful that I’ve named after Hanson lyrics just because I think it’s funny... but most of the time there is no rhyme or reason to it.

7. What’s one piece of advice you’d give to a new writer?

Just keep writing. Because it’s easy to get discouraged about kudos and attention. Kudos and attention does NOT equal quality. It’s still something that I struggle with letting go, but as a new writer it’s more difficult not to see that as a failure. But my first fics in this fandom still have some pretty low kudos counts and my fics in other fandoms have as few as FIVE kudos. Five. I think they’re great fics, but I’m just not as known in that fandom/there aren’t as many readers. For example, I wrote this AWESOME Brokeback Mountain fic for the Hanson fandom and it has only 15 kudos.

8. How important do you think tags are when you are publishing a fic?

*gets up on soapbox* Tags are the most important part of publishing a fic. I am a firm believer that anyone can write anything the want as long as it is properly tagged. Proper tagging is the writer’s only responsibility to the reader. If those are in place, what follows doesn’t have to be tailored to anyone.

9. Do you write for fests/exchanges? If so, do you enjoy them? If not, why not?!

I have mixed feelings about this. I used to write for both. Now I exclusively write for fests and I’m selective about the ones I participate in. Why? Well for one, deadlines. I’ve made the mistake too many times of overcommitting and then nothing felt right and I was stessed about it and just... not good. As for exchanges... I’ve been burned in the past? By dropouts and such? Or by the giftee not liking or never reading the fic? Or by me needing to drop out for mental health reasons but not because I was writing FOR someone? I’ve done a handful of pinch hits since I swore off exchanges, but they’re too much anxiety for me personally. (I have had some good experiences with exchanges though!! Not all of them were bad!!)

10. Which work of yours are you most proud of and why?

As We Were, As We Are..... because.... DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH FRICKIN RESEARCH I DID FOR THAT FIC!? ALL WHILE WRITING IT DURING NANO?!?! I put soooooooo much into that fic that I’m sad it didn’t get much attention. It was written for the Alex exchange so Harry is written as Alex so that’s probably why. Some people have a big problem if fics aren’t written a certain way. I don’t know. I was really sad about that though. I LIVED in WWII for months with that fic and it will always be special to me. I’ve even thought about putting more work into into it to have it published somewhere. I know it’s not like... classic 1D fic quality or whatever but I think the bones of it are strong enough. I don’t know, I’m probably delusional. haha but I still like it

11. What’s next for you?

Oh man. Well. I said I was going to stop writing for this fandom. But then this rush of support came in and then I started to feel really spiteful and thought that I’d keep going just because of that... and I feel like I’m only just now gaining a following for my fics that keeps me motivated enough to keep improving... soooo I’ve committed to a few fests coming out this fall. I am also participating in Wordplay going on right now. The first fic comes out tomorrow I think. I also have some Sisterwives timestamps.

1. What fic have you written that you wish everyone would read?

dunkirk fic and sisterwives probably

2. What’s your favorite character you’ve ever written?

hahahahaha harry from one of my yet to be published sekret fics hahahahaha but I really love so many of them like shifter harry

3. What’s your most popular fic and why do you think it’s your most popular?

By Kudos? Where Do We Go Now. And I have no idea. Because I always have to click to even remember which one it is. And it was written so fast and I remember not liking where it went but just hit publish because it was a pinch hit... I honestly have no idea. Someone please give me insight on this because i have no idea.

4. What’s one of your favorite fan fics that you haven’t written?

I kind of answered this above but I’ll also say The Wilds because it wrote so fast. I wrote the whole thing in under 24 hours

5. What is your current WIP about?

Ummmmm Some of them are going to be posted on anon I think? So I’ll just say Thor Harry

6. What is a fic that you hope to write someday?

siiiiigghhhhhhhh my Almost Famous au

7. Do you read fics from other fandoms? Which ones?

I read a lot of Thorki... and random fandoms. I love to read a lot of fucked up shit just for the shock value of it?? I don’t know, I’m weird like that. So I started branching out to general tag searches so I’ve read stuff from tons of fandoms that I don’t even know what they are. I think Supernatural is one I frequent a lot because they have some real fucked up fics.

8. What author or book has influenced you as a writer?

Sooooo There was a writer that really sparked my creativity back when I was in a different fandom. But then they disappeared from that fandom and I ran into them as a popular figure in the 1D fandom but they’re kind of hated in the fandom now?? so I won’t say their name. BUT in the other fandom, they had this fic that I still go back and read to this day every once in a while. It was intense, a lil fucked up, and just... yeah. The kind that sticks with you.

9. What’s one of your favorite books from when you were a child?

Island of the Blue Dolphins. Which I reread a few years ago and ??? idk I was a weird child. I mean I didn’t think it was a BAD book

10. What’s an au/trope that you thought you didn’t like until you read one and loved it?

Harry Potter AUs? haha I’m sure there are more than that because there have been a LOT I didn’t think I’d enjoy and then I loved... OH THE TIME TRAVELER AU. I don’t remember why but I didn’t read that foreeeeever because I didn’t think it was my thing.

11. Choose one: angst or fluff?

angst. this isn’t even a question.

Wow. I probably spent too much time on that. If you’ve made it this far, kudos for sticking in there through my ramblings.

Let’s see.

1. What is the most problematic concept in one of your fics?

2. Mpreg. Yey or ney and why.

3. What aspect of a fic can you write but not read?

4. What aspect of a fic can you read but not write?

5. What fic is your most popular?

6. Is it a fic that surprises you or is it one you wish was not as popular?

7. Is there an exchange/fest that you didn’t write for that you wish you would have?

8. Do you write in any other fandoms?

9. What was the first fandom you started writing for?

10. Do you write other pairings other than your main?

11. What projects are on the back burner?

Omg this was so hard. um.... @tragic---love @wendydarlingfics @reminiscingintherain ummmmmm omg tagging people gives me such anxiety bc i feel like i’m annoying. its a struggle. back at cha @chloehl10

SHIPPING INFO // Answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

REPOST. Don’t reblog.

tagged by: @ofspaceandmyth tagging: whoever wants to have this on their blog.

What’s your OTP for your Muse?

Honestly? I ship Loki with chemistry. Yes, there are some canon pairings that I enjoy quite a lot outside of rp, but when it comes to rp, it's more about how the muses get along and how the muns get along. I’m not gonna prioritize finding someone of a muse I ship Loki with over someone I hadn’t considered before. For example, one of my favorite pairings for Loki is FrostIron, however, I have not had a longterm Tony or the ship on my blog in quite some time.

What are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

As long as both I and my partner are comfortable with something, I’ll do just about anything. Smut, I can be a little iffy on. I really have to trust my partner ooc in order to do really smutty threads with them and usually prefer to keep smut to a minimum, but honestly? There’s not a whole lot I’m not willing to explore in a ship. Healthy ships? Great. Platonic ships? Fantastic. Toxic and/or abusive ships? Yeah, bring it on, I believe fiction is a place to explore everything, dark or otherwise.

How large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

Because most of my muses on this blog are literally over one thousand years old, age differences are expected. For Loki, specifically, he’s extremely chill with age gaps. It’s all about their cultural age. Loki doesn’t tend to date younger than someone culturally equivalent to himself. Basically, anyone under the age of a “young adult” or someone in human standards who’s younger than their mid-twenties is probably a huge no-no. Ironically considering Loki spends so much time with people who are technology younger than him, he tends to go for older individuals.

Are you selective when shipping?

Yes. If there’s chemistry, I’m always open to a ship, but I won’t promise someone a ship until our muses have interacted and are given the chance to feel it or we, the muns, that plotted a lot ooc and have figured our muses can click. I love ships, but not for the sake of shipping.

Also, I have run into a similar problem with multiple people where they only want to ship with Loki if and when Loki is male. They have glossed over Loki being gender fluid. They have glossed over Loki being a shapeshifter. They do not want to interact with Loki unless Loki has a cock and balls and nothing else. They do not acknowledge that Loki is a mother. Honestly, I have so many people treat Loki like a cisgender male and still want me to ship with them and I can’t. I literally cannot. So this makes me even more selective of shipping. A person needs to be able to accept Loki as a man, a woman, both, neither, and everything in between because Loki is Loki, regardless of form or preferred pronouns.

How far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?

Uh??? If they’re naked and they’re naked because their intent is to have sex then that’s when.

Who are other muses you ship your muse with?

Loki x Heimdall ( @vanirbound )

Loki x Bruce Banner x Hulk ( @rationalunreason )

Loki x Winter and/or Bucky Barnes ( @notcompliant )

Loki x Eris ( @dominionovershadows )

Loki x Fandral ( @fandralxthexstabulous )

Loki x Xiomara ( @bornofbloodandwater )

Loki x Zelda ( @lameshsorsye ) - tho they are just now exploring their romantic intent

Loki x Torin ( @forsakenmyths )

Loki x Lei ( @forsakenmyths )

Loki x Steve Rogers ( @weightofmyshield )

Loki x Johnny Blaze ( @ofcharredbones )

Loki x Lara Croft ( @raidstombs ) - she has sadly been inactive for months though

Loki x Set ( @dcmncticivs )

Loki x Wynter ( @lxvingdeadgxrl )

Loki x Sebastian Castellanos ( @dominionovershadows )

Loki x Jekyll x Hyde ( @likesbeingbad ) - though we haven’t gotten to the shippy shippy yet

Loki x Tony Stark - though I do not have an active frostiron ship on this blog, i just love frostiron a lot

Loki x Egil ( my own muse )

Loki x Vera ( my own muse )

Loki x ObiWan Kenobi - this takes place off tumblr, though

Loki x Poe Dameron - also takes place off tumblr

So basically a lot of OCs and a lot of canon characters that honestly started off because I loved the mun’s portrayal a lot more than being predetermined on a ship.

Any pairings you aren’t willing to ship?

Loki x Sigyn ( logyn ) - yes, okay, I know they are a canon ship in Norse mythology and some comic arcs, but in Marvel comics, Loki almost always hates Sigyn and in Norse myth, their relationship is not authentically genuine in my opinion. Sigyn didn’t like Loki until Loki pretended to be someone else and once she agreed to marry him, she was bound by her oath, not by love. People highly romanticize Loki x Sigyn when, in reality, their relationship was more or less based on convenience and both of them likely slept with other people while being married. There’s even room to argue that Loki and Sigyn’s son(s) were not actually Loki’s. If people don’t overly romanticize them, they like to play on the idea that Loki is abusive to Sigyn and Sigyn stays because of her loyalty and I honestly? Hate that a lot too.

Loki x Darcy ( tasertricks ) - yeah, I know it’s popular in the fandom--at least, it used to be--but I don’t see it. I don’t get it. I don’t like it. I don’t ship it.

Loki x Thor ( thorki ) - if you’re gonna ship thorki, just admit that it’s problematic and unhealthy and yes, incest. If you cannot admit that or gloss over the fact that they are brothers, I’m just not interested, and I really just? Don’t enjoy the fandom’s love of the ship without the development or the acknowledgment that it’s not a standard romance and is, in fact, incest.

Loki x Hela ( does this even have a ship name? ) - this just makes me uncomfortable all the way around because in my canon, Loki is the mother of Hel and even separating that from MCU, it’s still... weird. It’s weird to me.

Loki x Natasha ( blackfrost ) - I’m not... exactly opposed to this ship, but I’d have to have an extremely special Natasha to make it work.

Does one have to ask to ship with you?

I would prefer you at least come to me and say “hey, I kind of ship our muses, can we talk about it?” I hate having someone just throw their muse on mine ic when I was not at all prepared for it.

How often do you like to ship?

If the chemistry is there, then I ship it.

Are you multiship?

Yep! Did you see all the ships I just listed?

Are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

I love shipping, don’t get me wrong, but I’m not here just for the shipping. Loki needs friends. Loki needs family. Loki needs enemies. It doesn’t always have to end in a ship, y’know, and I’d rather not force one if one or both muses and muns are not feeling it.

What is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

My love of my ships truly does come from my partners so I would not be willing to say that I love one ship more than another ship.

Finally, how does one ship with you?

Talk to me about rping.

Plot with me (I really do prefer plotting over winging it, so if we plot, chances are, I’m already in love.

Communicate with me ooc as we write because I tend to ship with muns I’m comfortable and friendly with ooc over people I don’t talk to ooc.

Allow my muse and your muse to just experience one another or gush at me ooc about them. If we chat about them ooc and see a scenario unfold where they might like one another, I’ll probably ship it.

Tell me if you ship our muses, even if it seems like I don’t. We can always talk about it.

SHIPPING INFO !! answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog. REPOST ! do NOT reblog.

WHAT IS YOUR OTP FOR YOUR CHARACTER?: In an ideal world, my OTP for Loki is no one. I’d love to be unbiased with my ships and adore them all equally, especially as MCU Loki has no canon love interest, but I’m human (drat!) and this is what role-playing is for. I have two OTPs and they’re both gay af. I write a whopping amount of frostiron, in fact I find it hard for Loki not to get interested if he’s playing with a Tony. My other one, I’m just gonna out and say that yes, boo hiss, I enjoy Thorki. But I don’t currently intend to play it. 20% of the reason being I don’t want the drama, 80% it’s my personal preference not to. There are other ships I absolutely love, especially because of the partners I’m playing with, and really it’s all about the chemistry as to who takes Loki’s interest.

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO WRITE WHEN IT COMES TO SHIPPING?: Pretty much the whole shebang. It’s ship/chemistry dependent but I’m up for a whole range of fluff to angst, domestic to toxic, first interest to long term ships. I have to have build-up with most things, however. I rarely do pre-established relationships except for frostiron. Children are a rarity and they take me getting to know a writing partner for a while, though I’m not super precious what with Lokes being multi-verse. We can make and scrap those little brats as often as we like. That said, I’m not a fan of mpreg at least with humans (unless they’re trans of course!) and with Loki I prefer him to switch to being female if she decides to get up the duff. It’s one of those things that depends. Sex-wise I will write anything you’re comfortable with. I like to let him run free without boundary, though I will put stuff under a Read More. Who knows how long it’ll be before Puritumblr stops me writing it anyway.

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?: With minors obviously being out of the question, this depends too. Loki looks in his thirties but he’s over a thousand years old so?? My personal preference is muses to be 20+ in human years ideally up to their considered ‘prime’. I’m not particularly a silver fox lover but I can make exceptions.

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?: I am, yes. Chemistry is important for Loki to respond to someone, but one of the biggest things is for me the mun to be personally attracted in some way to the muse in question. I’m sure that can be a butthole but I just can’t give a ship the depth of feeling it needs if me and Loki aren’t on the same page. He’s also fussy about how he’s treated.

HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY ARE CONSIDERED NSFW?: Interesting question. Uh, I start tagging it if hands go wandering, language is filthy enough and kisses are particularly heated. Read More’s start if enough clothes have come off and touches are in intimate areas.

WHO ARE THE CHARACTERS YOU SHIP YOUR CHARACTER WITH?: Oh god, I’m going to forget someone I know it. Off the top of my head I’m currently shipping with Tony Stark, Stephen Strange, Natasha/Natalia Romanoff, Emily Clearwater, Sigyn, Steve Rogers, Valkyrie, Heimdall, Grandmaster, Jessica Jones, Karen Page, Kili (toxic currently), Ashley Jones, Darcy Lewis, Amy Pond, Hela, Amora and there are several muses I think we’re working toward shipping or that I’d like to but I won’t yet list. I would be willing to give Bruce a try even if Loki’s got qualms about Hulk. He’s curious about T’challa, Shades, Okoye, Clint Barton (lol good luck Loki), Scott Lang and likely more.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU? Not really! If you don’t mind it being a surprise as to whether Loki is interested in your muse or not then you’re welcome to blindside him with interest. If you’d rather know from the outset then by all means chat to me. As before, though, don’t just assume you’re in a relationship with him unless a meme calls for it orrr you’re frostiron, in which case just hit me.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU LIKE TO SHIP?: More frequently than I expected.

ARE YOU SHIP OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE - OR - LESS?: I didn’t think I was obsessed but I have found that, since the hell that was Infinity War, Loki has been very much seeking the love.

ARE YOU MULTISHIP?: Yes.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM?: Frostiron and Thorki

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU?: If we’re playing together/I’ve followed you back either IM me to ask, see how our muses react to one another/run the rejection roulette, or if you’re a Tony Stark just jump on him tbh.

Tagged by: @endw1gast (this was fun, thanks!)

Tagging: @araedi and any roleplayer reading this. I wanna see how all of you wanna ship so I can’t possibly tag the whole blimmin’ lot of you.

Title: New Beginnings: Pairing: Thorki Rating: Very explicit with both M/F and M/M sex scenes Words: 50,000 Tags: GENDERFLUID Loki, Lady Loki, Top Loki, Bottom Loki, Top Thor, Bottom Thor, PANSEXUAL THOR, PANSEXUAL LOKI, lots of sex, Thor likes to see how many orgasms he can pull, miscommunications, yelling, mental illness, depression, healing, MPREG (sort of but not really because Loki’s a lady the entire time), Shuri and Loki become besties, Loki and Banner become besties, Loki and Stark amuse one another, The Avengers have a coming to Jesus meeting, lots of magic. Loki and Strange really hate each other, did I mention all the sex? Cause there’s a lot of sex. Stark’s pop culture references Summary: Asgard’s been destroyed, a ship of refugees flies through space on their way to Earth and Thor and Loki have to learn how to work together to give their people a new life. There are miscommunications

He yelped when his brother grabbed his ankle and yanked, pulling Loki flat against the bed before looming over him with a satisfied grin. They kissed again, passionately and deeply; Thor pushed at Loki’s robe wanting more skin while Loki’s clever fingers pushed Thor’s small clothes down his thighs. Thor moved down again, and Loki could have hit him for it, but when his lips closed over the trickster’s nipple, he couldn’t help moaning and arching into it. His hands slid into Thor’s shorn hair, sad he couldn’t grip as he wanted to, but liking the spiky locks. “Thor!” he panted arching into his brother’s mouth. “Brother please!” He was hard and wet and wanted Thor inside him pressing against that spot that never failed to make him see stars.

Thor, the asshole, moved down bypassing his cock again to bite and suck more bruises into Loki’s thighs. “You have an unhealthy obsession with my thighs,” Loki groaned. He tried to kick his brother in the head to get him going, but the giant oaf caught his ankle easily with a knowing laugh before he finally took pity and closed his mouth around the head of Loki’s cock. The prince cried out and arched, his hands going back into Thor’s hair to keep him there.

There wasn’t a lot of talking after that; instead the sounds of Thor’s mouth moving over Loki’s cock echoed around the room. He’d somehow found the oil while torturing Loki with his mouth, and a slick finger pressed into the younger brother’s entrance. “Ah yes,” Loki breathed. His hips started to move in rhythm of Thor’s mouth and fingers inside his body. It felt so incredibly, and when Thor finally crooked his fingers to brush against his prostate, Loki spilled down his throat with a groan of Thor’s name.

With a smack of his lips and an obscene pop, Thor pulled up, a huge smirk on his smug face. “Mm delicious,” he moaned before sliding up Loki’s body to kiss him again. His fingers slipped easily back into Loki’s body, and he stroked against his brother’s prostate swallowing Loki’s groans of pleasure. “I’m so glad we’re like this again, Loki. It had been ages since we’ve lain together in anything but anger. This is much more pleasurable don’t you agree?”

How could he not agree? While hate sex was always terrific, this was so much better. Coming together out of affection and not anger added an extra element that had Loki getting hard again in minutes with his brother’s skilled fingers moving inside his body. “Yes,” he gasped, finally answering Thor’s question. “Yes! Thor!” He moved with Thor’s fingers inside his body, pressing his hips back into them as his brother teased over his prostate and it wasn’t long before he was fully hard. Thor pulled his fingers out, giving one more teasing stroke against his rim before he lined up his cock and thrust in hard and fast. Loki’s legs closed around his brother’s hips, heels digging into Thor’s tight perfect ass to pull him in closer. “Oh! Oh, right there! Right there!” It was all too good, all so perfect and Loki cried out with pleasure over and over as Thor moved in and out of him in hard fast little thrusts that hit all the right spots.

So there's this post all over my dash lately. It's with a picture of Thor, and text "when u have siblings and like fictional sibling relationships but ppl are gross about it" and i just.... i get it and i respect it and I've unfollowed those ppl. But as someone who has incest ships such as, say, Thorki, but who ALSO happens to have four siblings... it feels like that post is claiming I can't differ between fiction and reality and that i'll do awful things to my siblings. Which I would never do.1

(thor pic anon)2 and I just. I don't dare to bring it up on my blog because ppl would totally take it the wrong way. Like I would never do such things- BECAUSE I know the difference between fiction and reality. but it's just driving me up the wall seeing that post everywhere... and I guess I wanted to rant at someone who would listen and not, y'know, be able to send hate mail back at me for this opinion that u can ship incest AND have siblings you love in a purely platonic, family way.—OH mood, anon. I’ve seen that post too, and like..... As a discourse blog: the post is fine, you’re totally entitled to think thorki is gross and make gentle fun of it, the reaction image is kind of funny.As a regular person: uuuughghggh Leave us alone we know you think it’s gross we’re just doing dumb shit with fictional gods it’s not a big deal FWIW, I did talk to a couple mutuals who reblogged the post, and we had really enlightening conversations about how they see a lot of their sibling relationships in these ships, so seeing them as romantic is uncomfortable and gross, while I don’t see Thor & Loki as actual siblings any more than I see them as actual gods and don’t relate them to my own family much at all, so it doesn’t really bother me. (We agreed that I’d tag and they’d blacklist and we’d stay mutuals, because some people are reasonable human beings about finding fictional things gross, as it turns out.)anyways yeah the post isn’t Awful or anything but I totally get the annoyance

This is a 18+ fandom blog where we will run into/discuss NSFW and problematic/taboo topics!

Keep In Mind:

𒆜 Real Life Political/Social Justice/etc stuff are allowed as long as we keep it on fandom/media/etc. FYI, I'm an Intersectional Feminist and a Pan-GrayAplAroAce + Fictosexual/Fictoromantic/Fictoplatonic.

𒆜 After some recent things I've seen that unfortunately exist, I cannot continue being civil with people who condone RL harassment over fiction so if you're a part of that or use the term "proshitter" unironically you will be blocked.

𒆜 I tend to disappear for long periods of time and then come back and blow everything up. I also switch Fandoms like crazy and only sometimes stick with one for a long period of time. I have a habit of mass reblogging/tagging, and am still sorting out the various untagged posts. I also mass follow blogs without looking at bios so I'm very willing to unfollow/block if asked in general (you do not need to have a reason!).

𒆜 I will try to tag everything so don’t worry too much about accidentally coming across something triggering/deeply upsetting. And if you're that worried about it, I usually stay in the realm of fluff, romance & familial relationships versus anything else.

ฅʕ•ᴥ•ʔฅ ʕ•ᴥ•ʔっ ʕ˵•ᴥ•˵ʔ

“Marrying the words fern, or distance, and wehe, an ache or sickness, the word can be roughly translated as 'distance sickening' or 'far woe' – a pain to see far-flung places beyond our doorstep.”

ฅʕ•ᴥ•ʔฅ ʕ•ᴥ•ʔっ ʕ˵•ᴥ•˵ʔ

To Further Clarify My Own Opinions On These Things:

Shipping is, inherently for a lot of reasons, romantic/sexual in nature. I don’t use the term “platonic shipping” for putting together two or more people in a sibling/parental/etc way because of that. If it’s platonic, it won’t be described as shipping. Also the “underage” tag is interesting to me because of what different countries and even different states would classify as legally underage, so I just boil it down to this: characters being shipped under 14 (especially if they’re under 10) and over 18 are a NO-GO. Large age gaps where both are 18+ or are around the same age in general (middle schooler x middle schooler/high schooler x high schooler, pairings like “17yr old x 19 yr old”) are completely fine.

Yes, I’m into OC x Canon. I’m a huge fan of OCs, especially making them (though personally not that big on self-shipping), and since I’m also a huge fan of shipping they go hand-in-hand. I don’t do Anti-OC rhetoric, but I do agree that Mary/Gary-Sues are a thing (just not that every OC is one). This is one of the biggest reasons why I created this blog, so I can provide help to those trying to make a two-dimensional fully rounded character. Lastly, as a nice reminder to Anti-OC people: every character is an OC, deal with it.

Concerning “Psuedo-Incest”, like Batcest (not between Bruce, Damian, Kate, Bette, Helena W.), MCU Thorki, etc; it will be in here but tagged so you don’t have to see it if you don’t want to. Psuedo-Incest doesn't bother me because it isn't actually incest and only works in AUs where the characters have never/will never see each other in a sibling/parental/etc way. Psuedo-Incest where step-family fall in love while looking at each other as “biological family” I classify as incest just because of how much of a reach creators are doing to make it truly incestuous while being unable to actually make it incestuous for some reason or another. And concerning ships like MCU Starker/Spideypool, etc; they will only show up if the canonically underage character has been aged-up or the canonically older character has been aged-down.

I don't do Real People shipping, for multiple reasons, but I'm chill with RPF (and even those non-serious compilations/edits) as long as the real people involved are okay with it. I personally believe if Real People shippers kept to their circles the shipping would never get toxic and have a lasting negative impact on the real world. I also don't do Loli/Shota type stuff or even zoophilia-esque shit; they're just not my thing.

In case you couldn't tell I'm a Pro-Shipper (aka anti-fanpol/anti-anti/etc), so I'd prefer if you blocked/ignored me instead of starting shit. I also align myself with neushippers/neufic/peacefic/etc etc, but I'm very anti-radqueer. Anyway, I have a whole tag explaining my views on this cause there is too much for one paragraph so check it out if you're curious. To give a little summary about myself, in RL I truly don’t give a shit what anyone does as long as it is consensual and I'm completely against pedophilia/zoophilia/etc etc. But in fiction, I'm both quite picky about what I read and "morbidly curious" (and maybe slightly dumb in comprehension) so I'm not huge on problematic ships or scenarios but I have and will read them. At the end of the day, I believe you can consume whatever fiction you want (as long as it's fiction, it isn't made with the intention of doing harm aka propaganda and you fully understand that's it's fictional) but most if not all "problematic" stuff won't be posted/reblogged here.

Rules: List the first lines of your last 20 fics (or however many you have altogether) see if there are any patterns. Then, tag some of your fav authors.

I was tagged by @skochius <3

Oh god, do I even have 20 fics? XD Oh well. I’m going to steal @skochius ‘s idea and group them by pairing. I’m not a great writer, so I’m sure a lot of my opening lines are not what they should be compared to more talented and professional writers.

Frostiron:

Two young men lay sprawled on the hood of a near mint 1970 Chevy Chevelle LS6 gazing up at the night sky. The stars shone brightly out here, the nearest town was at least an hour away and the light pollution minimal. Perfect for those who wanted to lose themselves gazing at the inky darkness above and to just lose themselves in general.

Tony sighs, resting the back of his head against the windshield of his father’s car.

My car now, he reminds himself.

- Kingdom of Stars

There was nothing remarkably special about October to Tony. Of course, as a small child he had dressed up, gone to parties, and Jarvis and his wife Ana took him trick or treating. But as he grew older, the magic started to wear off. Parties became more adult, more of an obligation. Other children his age were few and far between at this time, and those that did attend were there because their presence too was required at parties that they had no interest in.

- Stark-O’-Lantern

Coney Island was buzzing with native New Yorkers and tourists this late summer evening. Everyone was enjoying the rides and food at the amusement park on the Island.

Well, at least almost everyone.

- Date Night, Frostiron and StarAccuser

Tony Stark was an idiot. Or at least that’s what he has been telling himself for the past two weeks since his unfortunate encounter with a very alluring, yet deadly woman at a global energy conference in Berlin. Deadly being the keyword to all of this.

Now he was in his Malibu home sitting across from one of the most gorgeous women he had ever laid eyes on. Part of him was a little disappointed that this was all just business and not pleasure.

- How Do You Like Me Now?

Tony glanced nervously at the god lounging elegantly at the opposite end of the couch. Loki looked every bit a royal; long slender legs crossed at the knee, back straight, hands folded nicely in his lap, and head held high. If someone saw Loki now they would assume he was in the middle of some important meeting or calmly discussing plans for world domination. This wasn’t the case, however, this was just him relaxing and watching a movie. If Loki was the picture of relaxed elegance, then Tony was the picture of relaxed chaos; legs sprawled out, body leaning back against the cushions, one arm draped over the armrest and the other flung over the back of the couch.

- Jurassic Stark

“Sir, may I recommend that you use the manual releases while disengaging from the suit? My scans indicate that the metal plate embedded in your thigh is dangerously close to your femoral artery. If the automated release and their components move it several millimeters to the—“

“Okay, okay, I got it, J!” Tony gritted his teeth against the pain. “Disengage all automatic release.”

“A wise decision, sir. Shall I call an ambulance to take you to a hospital?”

- Boredom and Mischief Don’t Mix

The end of Tony Stark’s life as he knew it began with a kiss. A simple thing really in the grand scheme of things, but nothing was simple when it came to Tony. He had to have everything bigger, better, more complex and grandiose. So it really shouldn’t have been as much as a shock to him when he and Loki first expressed their desire for one another so long ago in the cell Loki was being imprisoned in deep in the heart of Asgard’s dungeons.

After that things just started going downhill, even though it didn’t seem that way at first.

- Another Year Older

Tony slowly knelt down on the floor, eyes fixed on Loki's. The god stretched out a hand and cupped Tony's cheek, gently caressing his cool skin. Tony leaned into that touch, sighing contentedly at the feeling of power throbbing underneath those fingers.

- Blood of a God

"L-Loki... FUCK!" Tony panted, fisting his hands in the bed sheets. He couldn't move his hands; invisible ropes that Loki had conjured earlier when he pinned Tony down on the bed immobilized them. Tony was still undecided if he wanted to murder him or kiss him for it. He cracked open an eye as he felt Loki's warm and wet mouth leave his aching, hard cock.

- Sex and Magic

The sound of glass breaking on hard tile triggered some inner alarm and woke Loki from his uneasy sleep. Cracking open an eye he surveyed the bedroom and found nothing of danger waiting for him. Relaxing his body, he starts to drift off again.

“Shit!”

His eyes snap open, green irises flashing brightly for a moment in the darkness. His lip curls in a slight smirk; Stark must be home.

- Battle Damaged (the first fic I wrote after over 10 years of not writing anything. Needs a complete an utter rewrite.)

Thorki:

It started when they were young boys; Thor no more than sixteen and Loki fourteen by Midgard standards. Loki, having enough of the other Aesir boy’s jests during weapons training, managed to steal away and come back to the suite of rooms he and Thor shared. He had every expectation of being alone; content to just study the dusty, old tomes that contained spell after spell. As he undressed from his dirty training gear he thought he heard a low groan coming from the private bath chamber that Thor and he shared.

- Four Years

Loki arched his back like the beautiful curve of Robert Downey Jr’s ass…

The lack of playtime in Asgard was oppressing the Thunder God. He was in a bad mood and needed his brother, but his brother was in face deep in a book in the library. Thor didn’t like books because books were dumb. Thor liked to read scrolls better which made Thor really smart even if people thought he was a dumb blond.

- Really Horribly Written Thorki Fic (total crack)

StarAccuser:

Faint light filtered in through the tattered curtains casting hazy patterns and shapes over the Kree's cobalt blue skin. Peter had been awake for nearly an hour now and intended to go right back to sleep, but the sight of Ronan lying peacefully on his back, face relaxed in sleep, kept Peter from his rest.

- Dawn

Smoke was still rising from the wreckage of Peter and Ronan's ship that was shot down hours ago by Skrulls. Ronan studied the wreck hoping that it would still fly, even if a short distance so that he and Peter could get off this moon the Skrulls occupied as a supply outpost. Correction: had occupied. The Kree had seen to it that the Skrulls were no longer in possession of this moon. Ronan, Peter, and the rest of the Guardians had unintentionally been caught up in the fight.

- A Silly Little Thing Called Fear

Christmas, 1985

“Peter. Peter, hand mama that ornament. No, the blue one,” Meredith Quill said, smiling down at her son who was playing with his transformers on the floor next to the half decorated Christmas tree. He picked up the sparkly blue ornament with snowflakes and stars on it, handing it to his mother. She hooked it on the branch in front of her and smiled.

- Guardian of the Christmas Tree, StarAccuser and Murder Girls

Tom Hiddleston/Reader:

“Lie back, darling,” Tom croons softly in your ear.

You do so without hesitation, resting your shoulders and head on the multiple pillows piled at the top of the bed.

Shifting his body, Tom positions himself between your legs, but not low enough for that sinfully gorgeous and deliciously tasting mouth to be where you desperately want it.

- Talk Dirty To Me

Chris Evans/Reader:

The safeword ritual had taken place, even if it over the phone, the scene would start the moment he stepped through the front door. You didn’t want any distractions from what was about to happen. Your pulse was racing and you stood frozen in place as he entered the room and quietly shut the door. Dressed in his red Henley shirt and dress pants, he stands there, not moving, just taking in every inch of you with those gorgeous blue eyes that were filled with nothing but domination. His face was face set in a hard mask of control. Your clit throbbed in anticipation and you could feel yourself become wetter by the second.

- Punishment and Reward

Gen:

The clicking of high heels echoed through the entryway as Pepper Potts determinedly made her way to the elevator. Tony was quick to follow.

“Pepper… Pepper, please, don’t do this!” Tony begged, trying to sound as pathetic as possible. “Please, don’t leave.”

Pressing the button to summon the elevator, Pepper turned to face Tony, her best friend, former boss, and former lover. “Tony we discussed this. In order for the company to really cement itself as the leading cause of clean energy and friend to the environment, we have to take every step necessary. And one of those steps is to become completely paperless.”

- Paperwork

I tag anyone who wants to do this (sorry I know it’s kinda cop out but so many of you write such amazing stuff that I cannot just choose a few)
